Come join our End of Year Celebration and Tour. We will get tour of the Brewery and Q&A on how River Rat Brewery got started, plan their production, and built their Supply Chain and Distribution system. Then we will retire to the deck which we reserved for sandwiches and refreshments and member recognition’s. The chapter will cover the food but it will be “Buy Your Own Beer”. See you there for a great night.

The APICS MidCarolina Chapter is touring Conquest Brewing, a new local brewer to explore Supply Chain and Operations Management. Even a small micro brew has to source it’s raw materials, perfect its manufacturing process, and establish distribution channels and packaging.

Its goal was simple: in eighteen minutes, teams of four must build the tallest freestanding structure out of 20 sticks of spaghetti, one yard of tape, one yard of string, and one marshmallow. The marshmallow has to be on top.
